The FlexScore® is the result of a rigorous 2-step verification of a company’s flexibility

First we assess the flexibility options carwow provides and then we anonymously survey a statistically significant proportion of their employees to make sure carwow is as flexible as they say they are. Our assessment is based on the six key elements of flexibility: location, hours, autonomy, benefits, role modelling and work-life balance.

We ask the hard questions so you don’t have to.

What employees are saying

"I do really love the 'remote first, hybrid working' mentality at carwow. We also offer a work from anywhere benefit which allows us to manage our annual leave really well. Our hybrid working is super flexible, so I can really manage my personal life well."

Careers at carwow

About us

We are on a mission to change the way people buy, sell or use a car by creating the world’s best online car marketplace.

Flexible working at carwow

🌱 At carwow, we aim to create a culture where our team can thrive no matter where or how they work.

🧘 Most of our team are hybrid (1-2 days in the office although more if you like), although some of our roles can be done fully remotely from one of our 4 locations (UK, Germany, Spain and Portugal).

🏡 We offer a healthy home office budget of £500/€550 and are also open to looking at alternative working patterns to ensure carwowers can work in a way that works best for them.

Approach to diversity & inclusion

Although our business sits across two historically 'male' dominated industries (Automotive and Tech), we have a 'no excuses' philosophy to our D&I strategy.

Our vision is simple – we want to be the most diverse and inclusive company within the automotive industry, but we know we have a lot of work to do to get to where we want to be.

We have been introducing a number of initiatives to help us achieve this including:

  • Checking our adverts for gender bias, and implementing anonymised CV screening.
  • Rolling out D&I training for all employees.
  • Reviewing our parental leave policies to make them more inclusive and considering aspects such as return to work and pregnancy or baby loss.
  • Introducing Diversity Champions and launching our first employee networking groups.
  • Making our workplace more thoughtful e.g introducing a diversity calendar, ensuring all company events are as inclusive as possible and giving back to the communities we work in.

We have a lot more planned for 2022, so watch this space!
